Li Dakai: Including AT/CVT Transmissions in Encouraging Programs

In the past five years as the NPC deputy, this year was the largest proposal submitted by Li Dakai, Chairman of Shaanxi Fast Group and Party Secretary Li Dakai. This included the classification of the minimum “Three Guarantees” regulations for major categories of automobiles and key assembly products; Revise the “Guidance Catalogue for the Adjustment of Industrial Structures”; strengthen the support for the introduction of high-level and highly-skilled talents at home and abroad for the state-recognized enterprise technology center; improve the conditions for the identification of high-tech companies and other aspects.

In the proposal to further improve and revise the Guiding Catalogue for Industrial Structure Adjustment, Li Dakai proposed that the “Guidance Catalogue for Industrial Structure Adjustment (2011 Edition)” (hereinafter referred to as the “catalogue”) promulgated by the National Development and Reform Commission in 2011 is the direction of government-led investment. Investment projects, the formulation and implementation of fiscal, taxation, finance, land, and import and export policies are important basis for encouraging the upgrading of traditional industries, fostering strategic emerging industries, and developing service industries. Since its implementation, it has played a positive role in promoting the adjustment of China's economic structure, optimizing the industrial structure, and enhancing the ability of independent innovation. It has also provided strong policy support for the development of related enterprises.

Li Dakai pointed out that the catalog has made explicit and detailed the relevant items, but after the refinement, some advanced technologies were not included in the scope of encouragement. Taking the 16th class "cars" of the encouragement category as an example, only the eddy current retarder is specified in the "car key parts" of Article 1, and no hydraulic retarder is mentioned. However, in the European market, the market share of eddy current retarder only accounts for 2%, while the hydraulic retarder has a market share of 98% due to its high technical content and good braking effect. In Article 2 only DCT and AMT in automatic transmissions are listed as encouraged, and AT and CVT are not included. In fact, AT and CVT technology have advantages over DCT and AMT in some aspects. At present, the domestic heavy-duty AT market has been monopolized by foreign companies such as Allison, Voith, ZF, etc. 80% of domestic auto-transmission passenger cars use imported transmissions, and some core technologies are still hollow. change.

Li Dakai suggested that “The drive systems for heavy-duty vehicles and buses (including mechanical transmissions, axles, and other key components)” should continue to be included in the encouraged category; secondly, “the key components for automobiles” must be listed in the category 16 encouraged categories. The addition of "hydraulic retarder" items is equivalent to the "hydraulic retarder" item in Article 19 of Article 19 of the "Foreign Investment Industry Guidance Catalogue (Revised in 2011)", and encourages the support of domestic auto parts companies to speed up the use of liquids. The innovative development of force retarder technology; Third, the AT and CVT automatic transmissions are included in the scope of encouraged categories. AT automatic transmission, in addition to its wide application in the passenger car market, has a broad development prospect in high-end heavy trucks, buses, construction vehicles, military off-road vehicles and other special vehicles. Li Dakai emphasized that it is necessary to accelerate the technological innovation and market application of domestic AT, CVT, DCT, and AMT automatic transmissions in order to break the monopoly of technology of multinational companies in the Chinese market.
